Resumo: The low academic performance in gifted individuals is a complex phenomenon which has been observed and reported by teachers, experts and researchers for over three decades. Although this definition does not meet a full consensus, it aggregates all the elements that make up this apparently antagonistic reality. The definition of low performance, underachievement in English; emphasizes the discrepancy between the realized potential (skills) and performance (achievement), particularly within the school context. The main objective of this article is to present the theoretical and empirical contributions that support the study of this phenomenon giftedness under the perspective of special people, namely the underachievers gifted. First of all, some elements related to the concept of giftedness are highlighted and the characteristics of a gifted individual are listed in order to present the definition of underachievement, characterize the underachiever gifted and outline some related coefficients present in this condition.

La definición de baja performance, underachievement en inglés, enfatiza la discrepancia entre el potencial revelado (habilidad) y la performance (realización) particularmente en el contexto escolar. Es objetivo central de este trabajo, la presentación de contribuciones teóricas y empíricas que fundamentan el estudio del fenómeno de la superdotación en la perspectiva de las poblaciones especiales, nombradamente la de superdotados underachievers. Inicialmente son destacados algunos elementos relacionados a la definición de superdotación y enlazados a las características del individuo superdotado, para luego presentar las definiciones de underachievement, caracterizar el superdotado underachiever y delinear algunos factores asociados presentes en esta condición.A baixa performance acadêmica em indivíduos superdotados constitui um fenômeno complexo observado e relatado por professores, especialistas e pesquisadores da área há mais de três décadas, muito embora não se tenha uma definição consensual que agregue os vários elementos que compõem essa realidade aparentemente antagônica.
